Prime Minister Narendra Modi, making his podcast debut on Zerodha co-founder Nikhil Kamath's People by WTF series, said that mistakes happen and he too is susceptible to making them.
"Mistakes happen, and I too can make some. I am also a human, not god," PM Modi told Mr Kamath.
The Zerodha co-founder also shared his apprehension about his language skills in the beginning of the podcast, jokingly referring to his "bad Hindi."
"Sir, please forgive me if my Hindi is not good. I am South Indian. I mostly grew up in Bangalore. My mother's city is Mysuru, where people mostly speak Kannada. My father was near Mangalore. I learned Hindi in school, but I don't have fluency in the language," Mr Kamath told PM Modi.
To this, the Prime Minister responded reassuringly, saying, "Hum dono ki aise hi chalegi" (We will manage together like this). I am sitting here in front of you and talking, I feel nervous. It's a tough conversation for me. This is my first podcast, I don't know how it'll go with your audience."
